FRONT INSTALL PROCEDURE
NOTE:
- Ensure the car is in gear and parking brake engaged.
- The first step is to break loose the lug nuts on the front wheels. Use a breaker bar, as most torque wrenches should not be used to untorque nuts.
- Next, jack up the front of the car.

The key step missing: wash the car first. No point in locking dirt under theguards. Also, I'd include scion instructions pdf in the OP.
Nice pics.

Nice pics.

Washing it first really goes without saying. Although I did note on one slide that I wiped down and QD'd (quick detailed) the area under each guard.

As for the stock instructions, that's a good idea. They've been added to the original post

PrinzJ 11-06-2012 08:53 PM

Just finished installing today. Great write up. Only $50 for the set from Toyota.

NOTE - Not sure why, but the baggies of screws and clips have different part numbers than the OP's bags. However, the front hardware is packaged with a front splash guard and the rear hardware is packaged with one of the rear splash guards. Even if you get them mixed up, only the rear uses the short metal clips, so that bag belongs to the back.

Thank you.

I will be doing this and dedicate the install to you. Although it looks dangerous, if I cut myself with one of the mud guards I will also be suing everyone in this thread.

EZ install, didn`t need to drill or take off wheels.

xcelir8brz 11-12-2012 05:47 PM

I installed hardware without drilling as well. Installed a bit differently.
